i got a GSR OBD1 that i rewired and soldered to an OBD2 plug. everything color matched. when i got it it didnt have an internal coil so i took one off a running 96 sohc CX. got new cap and new wires and rotors and when i went to go fire, it gets no spark, what other internal part could need to be changed?


I tested another GSR dist and it starts the car up.

its possible the coil you installed was bad to begin with.

 

the coil i had was off a running CX, the coil was from the old motor i used to run

 

Could be the igniter, try using the one from the good dist and see if that works.

 

i replaced it and i will try to start it up and test soon, thanks
